OOB Oysteilo +40 v Gamerman01 with tech - UHD map

My friend, that is what I was hoping you would say but I am feeling so suffocated with Japan and Germany I think we’re in for a longer one

But yes, I really really want the money supply cut off from Egypt

And then there’s the war bonds :O
At first when I saw 6,6 of course I thought you got 2 techs.
I’m glad you remembered to give yourself the +1, the house rule

You can get that with your war bond $$$

Sorry about delay, you are next even if Adam moves fast again, I’ll do this one first

I looked back at our strange 1.1 round game in 2018.

I apologize. I have really been a crappy person to play, for you.

I have been slow for moves and grumpy about dice (I looked over the game thread from 2018). I only played 2 games over 4 years’ time and you were one of them (and it was only 1.1 rounds! LOL)

So you have been so good to me but I have been rather lousy for you.

It is so great that you are the one player who will adventure with UHD with me, and my return to OOB.

I got super lucky again with the desperate Japanese. However, I made a huge mistake not remembering to combat move on the sub in Z6. It zapped me for 5 damage and threatens my fleets, and will probably drown the transport that is in Z5, a significant setback. But that makes me feel better about the rape of Anhwe (a reference to rape of Nanking)

Sealion seems so far off - what will happen?

If you want me to take a couple Jap planes off for the lucky dice, that would only be reasonable. I seem to recall you offered me something like that in our other game, in 2018.

I will try harder to be a fun opponent.

Thanks for the great response -

Take your time, I’ve been busy and then last night I got the stomach flu, pushing my week schedule back at least 1 day.

I did think it strange the Mongolians didn’t turn but thought maybe they did on the next turn or something, so YES absolutely if they don’t turn you’ll have to work hard editing it all.

I just don’t know what to do about the mighty Russia, the OOB NO’s to the mideast and Africa and now war bonds on steroids.

Yes, well said, attacker option to retreat, could have waited a turn if the Chinese get on the coast but they just split up more. Bombers could reach, so I think a good move and then of course the dice really blessed it.

Two big stack attacks by the Japanese and both go great and yet they still lack a lot of land/income

I still worry about all the good things you have going, here. And, of course, US heavy bombers! 😭

All the best,
Have good days,
Gamer

Combat Hit Differential Summary :

6 days? I’m terrible.
Elche folded our Classic game so my only other is the playoff

Scramble to 92 from Gibraltar?? The Italians have to hit you, they’re not going to just sit around in the Med with one transport.
Wait for meeeee!

I am always very careful, I’m glad you gave clear instructions.

Don’t rush, I can’t play until tonight anyway.

Off top of head, the reason not to scramble is in case you start losing those planes and then they can’t scramble to 91 on G turn

I’m not going to use the time and energy it takes to determine whether Triple A will do this correctly, but I’m pretty sure it won’t.

I’m going to roll on forum to make sure this is done correctly, mainly that casualty decisions aren’t demanded by TripleA when they shouldn’t be.

We have the weaselly Italians attacking with
3 subs
4 destroyers
2 cruisers
1 battleship
1 fighter
1 bomber

The noble British defend with
1 Russian sub
3 subs
1 destroyer
2 cruisers
1 carrier
5 fighters

Both sides have destroyers, so the attacker rolls first:

And the Russian sub has no choice but to fight since the Italians have 4 sub-hunters 🙂

Pew pew, the Italians roll

3 subs [dice 3d6<=2]
4 destroyers [dice 4d6<=2]
2 cruisers and a fighter [dice 3d6<=3]
battleship and bomber [dice 2d6<=4]

Of course I hope I don’t get super lucky in this 3rd big attack on the Allies, nor super unlucky. Would like just a little bit lucky LOL
